SS had a press conference the other day. He invited two bloggers (pigh (pigh.livejournal.com)and akunamatata_ser (akunamatata-ser.livejournal.com)) and let them ask one question each. The invited were palace bloggers serving the needs of the regime. The questions they asked obviously were pro-regime.

One question was that why the police do not get rid of the sit-in participants since they are driving the shops on the Northern Avenue to bankruptcy. The other question was why don't the police disperse the demonstrators near Matenadaran since these demonstrations are not sanctioned.

A normal way of asking such questions would be: why aren't the sit-in participants allowed in the Liberty square so that the shop owners on Northern Avenue are not inconvenienced; and why aren't demonstrations allowed at Matenadaran...

These two bloggers have been very active promoting blogging in Armenia. Incidentally, these two were also the authors of the 'soap operation' a few months back. With their actions, they are turning the word 'blog' into a four letter word.

The other ( and I think main) reason for dispersing the sit-in participants from Northern Avenue because of its unsanitary character. This is a very significant phrasing as the same rhetoric was used by other neo-Nazis and fascists e.g. Armenians are unsanitary for skinhead Russians, Jews were for Germans, communists for Mussolini’s black shirts and so on and so on.

Sorry my earlier sentence might have not been clear.I meant:The other ( and I think main) reason according to the infamous blogger for suggesting the dispersal of the sit-in participants from Northern Avenue was because of its "unsanitary" character.This was suggested by blogger named Chamanyan aka akunamatata_ser in LJ.

As for the homophobic essence of soap action, I've given explanations on this action to artmika, and he was satisfied with it.

Opera is being cleaned up of shit.In its direct sense.They are cleaning up the lifestyle products of the champions of democracy and followers of liberalism.========I can accept your translation too.The meaning of this comment is that police was cleaning out all the trash, including human excrements, from opera garden.

Actually, I’ve been concerned about the mental and psychological development of these 30-something “bloggers” who live in the Willie Wonka Never-Neverland of LiveJournal, spending so much of their time competing over who can use the most exclamation points, question marks, and emoticons in an attempt to make some sort of a point. But the SS/RK regime obviously supports this infantilization and rewards it—just how it rewards it is unclear. But what happens, Uzogh-jan, when you start to outgrow the court jester costume? It seems to me that yours at least is already starting to become uncomfortable…

Another person who was very concerned with cleanliness was Lady Macbeth. Sometimes cleanliness is not next to godliness, sometimes it is simply trying to cover one’s guilt.

Rubenwe as well you know very well that what you meant. Now don't try to be smart and diplomatic.I am sure if you were given the order from great leader Hrant to go to freedom square on March 1st and "punish some Levonakan scam" you wouldn't even blink your eye.

What a pathetic garbled mess. you whine and shriek in horror about the use of the word shit, yet you have no problem painting Kocharian and Sargsyan in a picture with Stalin and a quote of them as "sons of Stalin's whore."

Ltp minions made the bed, now they can sleep in it. Truly the sons and daughters of Vano (and the best thing is, y'all will probably consider this a compliment).

Ruben Muradyan, once again drawn into a corner, once again claims things were lost in translation. Surprise, surpise.

Ultimately, it isn't as much about the actual words you used, but what you meant by them, and there isn't a doubt in anyone's mind (including those who actually enjoy the senseless, heartless, cynical drivel and utter crap that you post on your blog) about what you meant by those words.

As for pigh's and the other fellow's cameos at Serjhik's circus sideshow, it isn't the worst thing to have come out of this administration. Although if it was me, I would probably have other questions to ask that wouldn't necessarily address the same thing (the opposition's protests) and at least would have the tiniest bit to do with Serjhik's duties and responsibilities as president.

As it happens, he is not Yerevan's mayor and is not a policeman, so the "representatives of the blogging community" are directing their questions at entirely the wrong person. Unless, of course, they want to insinuate and/or confirm as Qocharyan did last week, that everything in Armenia is decided at the Presidential Palace. Interesting that the new appointee didn't point out that it wasn't his place to comment on the matter.
